Heya :) I'm getting repeated errors while trying to leave a message on your user talk page at Fallout, so I hope you don't mind that I'm going to leave a message here, instead.

I was just dropping by to check on your current feelings about portable infoboxes. I know that in one of the two forum threads you mentioned that you had some reservations, but it doesn't appear as though Shining-Armor created an example to allay your concerns.

I should also point out that our code has continued to develop since early August, and therefore things which concerned you before may well have been resolved. You might even want to check this page at Battlefield for an example of a weapons infobox that is a bit more complicated and closely-designed than was possible in early August.

I agree with your rationale from 9 August at Forum:Upgrading Infoboxes that an up-down vote was premature at that time. More examples were indeed necessary for the community to make informed choices.

We at Wikia would like to work with you and everyone at Fallout to make sure that we deliver infoboxes that are as close to what you currently have as possible. So let's start working towards that goal — since, as The Gunny pointed out back in August, you're getting a significant amount of your traffic from mobile devices. Indeed, you're getting around a 64%-36% split between iPhone and iPad users, and that the majority of your mobile users are Apple users — which means that the majority of your mobile users are actually seeing the mobile skin.

In order to start us off on a realistic path that will help the community fairly judge the new infoboxes, I'd like your opinion as to which infobox(es) you'd like to see replicated as "examples". Then, I'll start work on creating those examples and we can have a good back and forth over the design until we get it to a satisfying point.

A great place to share your ideas about the specific infobox(es) you'd like to see converted would be this rekindled thread at Fallout, where a few admin have already started leaving comments.

Thanks for reading. I hope to hear from you soon!
